If it is gas operated, the hot water heater may not light because it may have a defective millivolt sensor. The millivolt sensor is heated up by the pilot and generates a fractional amount of voltage telling the gas valve that the pilot is lit and the gas valve can now be safely opened to heat the water heater.
I am considering buying a gas water heater. How does a gas water heater work?
No, you only need gas for a gas water heater.

Most of the controls on gas water heaters have a one time use overheat sensor that when tripped cannot be reset, the control has to be replaced.
The gas water heater works through a principle of physics which is known as convection. The gas heater is similar to a water heater only that it has one heating unit.?æ
No, it is not dangerous. (Unless you are working with a water heater that is 20+ years old.) In any modern hot water heater, if the pilot light goes out a fail-safe will go off - preventing gas from leaking out. Also, there is a sensor so if there is not enough air-flow or oxygen with the water heater, it will shut off the gas.
Gas heater & electric heater both are available.
